1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Approximately 8% of the human genome consists of repetitive elements called tandem repeats (TRs): short tandem repeats (STRs) of 1-6 bp motifs and variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs) of 7 + bp motifs. TR variants contribute to several dozen monogenic diseases but remain understudied and enigmatic. It remains comparatively challenging to interpret the clinical significance of TR variants, particularly relative to single nucleotide variants. We present STRchive ( http://strchive.org/ ), a dynamic resource consolidating information on TR disease loci from the research literature, up-to-date clinical resources, and large-scale genomic databases, streamlining TR variant interpretation at disease-associated loci.
